Introduction: Iatrogenic botulism is a rare, serious disease that progresses with descending paralysis and develops after cosmetic or Dryer Element Clip therapeutic botulinum toxin-A (BoNT-A) application.Case presentations: In this case series; six cases of iatrogenic botulism followed up in our center are presented.Four of these developed after ga
Abstract Background Rapid HIV tests provide same-day results and are widely used in HIV testing programs in areas with limited personnel and laboratory infrastructure.The Uganda Ministry of Health currently recommends the serial rapid testing algorithm with Determine, STAT-PAK, and Uni-Gold for diagnosis of HIV infection.Using this algorithm, indiv
We study timed systems in which some timing features are unknown parameters.Parametric timed automata (PTAs) are a classical formalism for such systems but for which most interesting problems are undecidable.Notably, the parametric reachability emptiness problem, i.e., the emptiness of the parameter valuations AV set allowing to reach some given di
The tribological performance of an artificial hip joint has a particularly strong influence on its success.The principle causes for failure are adverse short- and long-term reactions to wear debris and high frictional torque in the case of poor lubrication that may cause loosening of the implant.Therefore, using experimental and theoretical approac
